| "A tale of the slave trade set in 18th-century Bristol, seen through the eyes of a merchant dealing in African slaves, the slaves themselves, and the merchant's wife whose task it is to prepare her husband's investment for a life of servitude in the drawing rooms of wealthy Bristolians. Philippa Gregory gives a fully rounded view of the dilemmas facing all the characters without moralising." Elizabeth Chadwick |
Set in 18th-century Bristol, this novel charts one man's efforts to move to the wealthy sector of the city - at any cost. To this end, he becomes involved in slave-trading. This is a tale of his ambition, and the plight of one African in particular, brought over to be trained as a model slave.
